You need to rename the file extension to .TXT

Look at all that nature and the exercise to get these pictures. Killing two birds with one stone

Thank you for the follow up

It you're going to wipe it clean then I see no need to continue the scan

I believe so but since the logs indicate you've not allowed Malwarebytes to remove what it finds it's difficult to say for sure.

Thank you for reporting @Mechman700 The issue should be corrected now

Thank you for reporting @Projectpain The issue should be corrected now

Glad we could help. I will go ahead and close your topic now and wish you well. Take care and stay safe out there and have a great weekend Cheers

Yes, Windows Defender has found and removed some items. Not sure but perhaps Malwarebytes was blocking a domain or IP that we have since removed from detection. Please go ahead and restart the computer. Then run the following and we'll check further.

Thank you. Nothing detected. How is the computer running now? Are you still seeing any signs of infection?

Okay, I'll go ahead then and close your topic if you feel all is okay now. Take care

The version of µTorrent you have is not considered safe. It is recommended that you uninstall it. You should not be running hacks, cracks, etc. That is a risk that sooner or later you could easily run into a Ransomware attack that can encrypt all your data and not be able to get it back. The act of torrenting itself is not illegal. However, downloading and sharing unsanctioned copyrighted material is illegal, and there is always a chance of prosecution if caught by the authorities. Torrenting non-copyrighted material is perfectly fine and is allowed. However, be aware that we have seen increased malware bundled with software downloads over P2P. Recent Ransomware infections have been seen to encrypt user data so that no one can decrypt the data without the private key. When sharing files, please keep in mind that you're increasing your system's attack surface area, which can increase the risk of infection. Scan all files before running them. https://www.virustotal.com If you don't need or use the P2P software, you should uninstall it. P2P File-Sharing: Know the Risks https://www.bankinfosecurity.com/p2p-file-sharing-know-risks-a-737 Hidden risks in pirated software https://news.microsoft.com/apac/2019/01/08/hidden-risks-in-pirated-software/ Why You Shouldn't Use Pirated Software (But Why People Still Do) https://www.computer.org/publications/tech-news/trends/why-you-shouldnt-use-pirated-software Games that use P2P Malwarebytes can often block Steam and other games because Steam uses what is known as Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology, meaning it connects to many different servers, workstations, and IP addresses. Sometimes Torrent based software will connect to a server that is also known for hosting malicious content. This is because multiple sites often share servers, workstations, IP addresses. So although what you are playing or downloading through Torrent-based software may be perfectly safe, some of the sites hosted on some of the IP addresses the Torrent-based software connects to may be malicious. Such connections are typically not a threat, and you may exclude Torrent-based software from the Web Protection component in Malwarebytes to stop the block alerts. Generally speaking, your web browser and other critical web-facing programs will still be fully protected from malicious websites and other malicious content. To do so, add the game executable program file to your exclusions using the method described under the Exclude an Application that connects to the Internet section of Exclude detections in Malwarebytes for Windows https://support.malwarebytes.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038479234-Add-to-the-Allow-List-in-Malwarebytes-for-Windows-v4 NOTE: Some torrenting software binds to your network card, and it may not be possible to exclude from Malwarebytes. As you can see, almost all of the Torrent Clients have multiple detections and should not be installed on your system. However, if you choose to do so, you're increasing your system's attack surface area, which can increase the risk of infection. µTorrent Classic https://www.utorrent.com/downloads/win/ 26/68 Detections on VT https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/50d5c5e87031f564b0ccf85520fd29e8189f06f616054bbbd31340b8d643a4a2 BitTorrent Classic https://www.bittorrent.com/downloads/windows/ 25/68 Detections on VT https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/94469fec615b685aab656ef8e11f863226577342b3242d9d69d094ecf9667798 Vuze https://www.vuze.com/ 04/70 Detections on VT https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/bde00314f437b8e383f0d1cac04c5f29e4edbd37c2b82f9e890c147280d281ff Deluge https://www.deluge-torrent.org/ 0/67 Detections on VT https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/d3f7d371b70ca10c7e912b9d3443fea3acd0c905aab4ac7799f02e65b58c8e59 qBittorrent https://www.qbittorrent.org/ 0/69 Detections on VT https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/d75395193afcd161281a24b01ef523aa012b8cb2c116579081d7c6664425acfe

The idea is to prevent infection in the first place. Had it been ransomware all your data could be encrypted and not be able to get it back. Please make sure you setup a good data backup routine Let's go ahead and do some clean-up work and remove the tools and logs we've run. Please download KpRm by kernel-panik and save it to your desktop. right-click kprm_(version).exe and select Run as Administrator. Read and accept the disclaimer. When the tool opens, ensure all boxes under Actions are checked. Under Delete Quarantines select Delete Now, then click Run. Once complete, click OK. A log will open in Notepad titled kprm-(date).txt. You can close it We're glad that we were able to assist you.
